Shipping/Delivery Policy

Ammo Hero does not ship outside the contiguous United States. Furthermore, Ammo Hero does not ship to Alaska, Hawaii, or any other area that is prohibited by federal, state or local law. Please make sure you are aware of your local and state laws in regards to buying any product on AmmoHero.com. It is impossible for Ammo Hero to know the laws and regulations of every state and municipality. 

The customer understands that once their package is handed to a carrier (UPS, FedEx, USPS) Ammo Hero does not have control over the customer's package. Additionally, the customer agrees that upon delivery of my package by the carrier to the address I specified in my order, the customer is fully responsible for the safety of their package. Ammo Hero is not responsible for any lost/damaged packages after delivery. 

When appropriate, a hazardous materials surcharge may be added to your order. A signature may be required on some packages and ALL hazardous materials packages. 

 

Firearm Shipping/Delivery 

The customer is responsible for knowing his/her state laws regarding firearm transfers. Contact your local FFL dealer with any questions regarding the sale or transfer of firearms. Contact your local FFL before ordering a firearm to verify their transfer fee and to ensure they will receive your transfer. The customer assumes all responsibility and cost for returned firearms due to FFL refusal or failure to receive.

If you order a handgun, stockless shotgun, complete AR or AK receiver, or stripped lower receiver, YOU MUST be:

  1. A legal resident of the state in which you are ordering.

  2. 21 years of age or older to complete the transfer through your FFL.

Exceptions: Military personnel stationed in a state other than their legal residence may purchase firearms across state lines. Contact your local FFL receiving the transfer as you may have to provide proof of deployment, residence, etc. 

The customer may be asked to provide the FFL information that they wish to use. If a customer wishes to change the FFL they want to use after the order has shipped, they will be additionally charged for the cost of shipping. If a FFL is not available at the time of delivery, the package will not be held at the carrier hub and will be returned to Ammo Hero. Additional shipping charges will apply to orders that need to be reshipped.

Firearms will incur an additional long gun or handgun shipping surcharge. 

  • Handguns MUST be shipped UPS second-day air.

  • If your order does not contain a handgun, shotgun, rifle, action and/or receiver shipping from Ammo Hero, your order will ship via Fedex Ground. 

Firearms cannot be returned; please contact the manufacturer for warranty claims.
